Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut milk, canned preferably
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or date
- ¼ cup milk ice cubes, loosely packed
- ¼ cup pineapple chunks, frozen*
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients to a blender and process until the mixture is smooth, about 30 seconds. Enjoy immediately or refrigerate for 24 hours.
- For long term storage, pour into ice cube trays and reblend when ready.
Notes
I used canned full fat coconut milk, but chilled boxed coconut milk also works, the smoothie won't be as thick.
To boost protein, add ¼ cup of rinsed white navy beans.
To use a date, drop it for 5 minutes in just boiled water and then pit it.
*You can use 2 tablespoon lemon juice instead of the pineapple chunks.
